In this session, members of the CTL Technical Writing, Audio Production, and Instructional Design Teams will provide helpful tips for developing and delivering a narrated PowerPoint lecture. Focusing on the 3 P’s – Planning, Preparation, and Performance – we will highlight the benefits of modularization, good slide design, strategies for accessibility, and recording best practices. Applying what is shared in the workshop, including resources to guide you, will make your lecture presentation creative and meaningful for learners, while achieving sustainability.

Note that although the focus of this workshop material is geared for preparing and delivering a narrated/recorded lecture in the CTL studio, the shared strategies and techniques can be applied to narrating a PowerPoint with any teaching and learning platform.

Speaker: Olivia Caramello
Abstract: "I will explain the sense in which Grothendieck toposes can act as unifying 'bridges' for relating different mathematical theories to each other and studying them from a multiplicity of different points of view. The first lecture will recall the necessary topos-theoretic preliminaries and present the general view of toposes as 'bridges' with the resulting techniques, while the second will discuss a number of selected applications of this methodology in different mathematical fields.”
